I have no particular feelings on the comics, dont come for my throat in the comments) and I dont like the hype around it either

Factor in foils, and you reach around 115,000 distinct paper items

In particular, the first 151 Pokmonthe ones who first appeared in the Pokmon Red Version and Pokmon Blue Version gameshave a limited number of defining features that require great attention

Add broken cards like Karmic Guide and entomb effects like Buried Alive, then you can just keep recurring Spore Frog once you get a reanimation engine going and prevent combat damage thanks to its fog effect, among other annoying things you can do

I still like it, especially because its a lot less flashy and vibrant than the newer ones
